Fruit Pizza Recipe

Classic Fruit Pizza Recipe, Fruit , and strawberries. This crowd-pleasing pizza recipe starts with my homemade pizza banana and is finished with a sprinkle of kiwi . It’s sweet and undeniably delicious!

Have you ever had one of those days when your brain says “salty” while your heart says “sugar” Well, that’s how this fruit pizza came to life in our kitchen because it’s a little sweet and a little fresh even though it was totally chaotic the first time I made it.

I’m not gonna lie because I thought the crust would fall apart but spoiler alert—it didn’t whereas my toppings Let’s just say there was an unfortunate strawberry avalanche and the kids still talk about it.

Anyway, fruit pizza has this weird kind of sweetness since it looks fancy but it’s super chill to make. Basically, you slap on a sugar cookie base then you smear some cream cheese frosting and you toss fruit like you’re creating art or in my case, like you’re dodging toddlers while cutting kiwis.

Also, have you ever tried fruit pizza cold from the fridge the next morning Because it’s a game changer and I mean that seriously.

So, if you’ve never made one or if your last attempt was, well, a hot mess then this one’s for you. And no judgment if you eat half of it solo because I’ve definitely been there.

Step 2

Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. You can use a hand mixer or stand mixer for about 3-4 minutes , then Add Eggs and Flavor: Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Then add the vanilla extract, lemon juice, and lemon zest,and Combine with Yogurt: Stir in the yogurt or sour cream until everything is smooth and creamy.

Step 3

Mix in Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Don’t overmix , and Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold the flour-coated blueberries into the batter. This helps them stay evenly spread in the cake and not sink to the bottom.

Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, and Cool and Glaze: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack.
